Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for theSpecial Purpose Project Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these special purposeI project financial statements in accordance with the International Public Sector AccountingStandard: Financial Reporting Under the Cash Basis of Accounting and the World BankGuidelines, for determining the acceptability of the basis of accounting and for such internalcontrol as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of special purposeproject financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or

I Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Center's financial reportingprocess.

5 Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Special Purpose Project FinancialStatements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the special purpose projectI financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud orerror, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is ahigh level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs

I

will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraudor error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonablybe expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these special3 purpose project financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain3 professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

* Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the special purpose projectfinancial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit proceduresresponsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate toI provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resultingfrom fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.I Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design auditprocedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose ofexpressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Center's internal control.I Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness ofaccounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

0 Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the special purpose projectI financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the special purpose projectfinancial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner thatachieves fair presentation.

I

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, theplanned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant3 deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
